Zlatan: No One Will Remember MLS if I don’t Stay

By Daily Sports on October 26, 2019

LA Galaxy forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic said that he has not decided on his future following his team’s 5-3 loss to LAFC in the MLS Western Conference semifinals on Thursday.

Ibrahimovic had a goal and an assist in the game, but it wasn’t enough as LAFC advanced to the conference finals after winning the first postseason edition of the city rivalry.

When asked where he’ll be playing, Ibrahimovic said it’s “too early to speak” on whether he’ll return for another season with the Galaxy.

“I have another two months [on my contract],” Ibrahimovic said after the match. “We’ll see what happens. ... [If I stay], then MLS is good, because the whole world will watch it. If I don’t stay, nobody will remember what MLS is.”

Since arriving to the Galaxy in 2018, Ibrahimovic has taken the league by storm with his scoring prowess, with 53 goals in 58 matches. Before arriving to MLS, he had an illustrious career in Europe with stints at Ajax, Inter, Barcelona, Milan, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United.

It was the Galaxy’s first loss in the six editions of the El Tráfico rivalry. After Carlos Vela staked LAFC to an early lead with a dominant performance, Adama Diomande scored twice as a second-half substitute. (ESPN)
